Abstract

Electric connector for fuel cell stack voltage monitoringAbstract:An electric connector for fuel cell stack voltage monitoring is suggested. The electric connector comprises at least two separate units, each unit comprising a plurality of pins, each pin being adapted to contact a plate of the fuel cell stack for monitoring a fuel cell stack voltage. The first pin of each unit is adapted to provide a measurement of a reference voltage.
